Get Him to the Greek lacks the heart of Forgetting Sarah Marshall but retains the witty style of gross-out comedy. Jonah Hill is disappointing here as he is a very talented comedian and Russell Brand has become a yoga-loving L.A. bum. He's always been such an idol to me.

I think what's most impressive surrounding the film is the soundtrack that was prepared for it. Russell Brand can out-sing his girl, Katy Perry in spades, while at the same time managing a hilarious act throughout the film. Unfortunately, Jonah Hill still can't make me laugh.

Get Him To The Greek is a brilliant film, combining outlandish behavior, regrettably nostalgic moments, and humorous emotion. Jonah Hill and Russell Brand are a hilarious duo, complimenting each other throughout this wild crazy roller coaster ride. If you want a comedy, watch this movie.

Sean Combs is in this movie and he's really funny too and I love the way when Combs plays a executive producer. This is the sequel to Forgetting Sarah Marshall,but I prefer Sarah Marshall better,because I'm happy with both of them and this is best sequel so far that is good. But you will enjoy this f@#$ing film and you will laugh so HARD that is really funny!…Expand

"I'm borderline here , this movie was , well you could say funny , outrageous , and extremely crude. But some of the gross out gags went to far at times for my taste , its better than Forgetting Sarah Marshall P-Diddy gave a great comedic performance" .. B+

The funniest movie I have seen in years. People are inclined to compare it to Forgetting Sarah Marshall, since they're both written by Segel and feature the same rockstar character, Aldous Snow (Russel Brand), but the movies should be taken separately, as they are nothing alike. Sarah Marshall thrives because of not only its comedy, but because of its heart and charm. Get Him to The GreekThe funniest movie I have seen in years.

I pretty enjoyed the movie, although it didn't generate a lot of laughs, it still was interesting as a whole. Russel Brand is so funny and amazing and Diddy was a pleasure surprise. I loved the scene when they all get high on Jeffrey in the apartment. The funny thing was when Jonah Hill accidentally calls his girlfriend when he had sex with the **** girl. Oh, I so love this comedy.

Brand's performance is very strong here, and very likeable. Hill also gives a hilariously pitch-perfect performance as well. What I really like about the film is it's insider view of the life of a wild rockstar.

P Diddy's performance helps to elevate this film into watchable territory.

I really like Jonah Hill and Russell Brand, but this movie as a complete composition wasn't as great as it could have been. I feel like the writing just didn't give them a lot to work with. There were sporadic funny parts, but overall a boring movie. Having said that, I would love to see them paired up in a movie again.

ReviewTeamwork and chemistry. I think it's the key to most films, but in particular comedies. As you have seen the few comedies I have liked this year it had great cast's with loads of chemistry (Hot Tub Time Machine and The Other Guys).

Nicholas Stoller who directed "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" is really good at balancing comedic moments and genuine romantic scenes. With that being said, "Get Him To The Greek" does what a lot of comedies do these days, which is it's funny for half of the film then towards last quarter of the the movie it gets really repetitive and drawn out.

However the last ten minutes of the movie were extremely funny and honestly most of that credit goes to Jonah Hill (Superbad and Funny People) and surprisingly P-Diddy. "Get Him To Greek" is not nearly as audacious and unforgettable as "Forgetting Sarah Marshall", but it's still a good mix of slap-stick comedy and good story telling from Stoller and Segel. B for "Get Him To The Greek"…Expand

The trailers of this movie were so misleading as they indicated that this movie may actually be funny.

It isn't terrible, but it needed better writing. It was hit-or-miss humor. Example: the african child bit is hilarious, the jamming drugs up one's ass in the middle of an airport is silly and sophomoric. The character played by Russel Brand is more annoying this time around. He might be best as a supporting character.

It resembles the movie Hangover in some ways. I love Russell Brand and his dry British cynicism. Jonah Hill is a good complement to the cast and brings some funny moments when he tries things for the first time... If you are not squeamish and you are not easily offended, you might like it too.

I loved Forgetting Sarah Marshall so to see Jonah Hill and Russell Brand together again was something I didn't want to miss. Get Him To The Greek is on the whole a funny film. The comedy wasn't quite as funny as I perhaps thought it would be but I still love it and will watch it over and over again.

Brand and Hill are such a classic duo. The antics of Brand's character Aldous Snow are beyond outrages but the way Jonah Hill's character Aaron Green deals with his antics is what makes the movie a must-see.

Hilarious. Battle for funniest movie of the year is between this and "Hot Tub Time Machine." If you have a personality and sense of humor, you'll love this movie. If you're in the church choir, never rolled a joint and married the girl (or guy) that took your virginity, it's not for you. Just that simple.

Russell Brand, Jonah Hill, and Diddy. You put all three of them into a movie and you get this hilarious and raunchy comedy. This is probably one of the good comedies of the year 2010. Talk about a bad year in movies, there is practically no good comedies these days. Comedies like Killers, Sex and the City 2, Cop Out, and Furry Vengeance all bombed in the box office and critics hated them.Russell Brand, Jonah Hill, and Diddy.

While it was funny and it bowed into the humor of today it seemed to much. Trying to hard to be funny and being funny are to very different things. Jonah Hill and Russel Brand are very funny and do great together but i think it lacked the proper script for these two. they needed more off the script stuff to make it flow together and not so written.

A truly hilarious movie. Russel Brand, Rose Byrne and P.Diddy make this film. Character and joke driven, this is what a light comedy should be. The plot is simple: Get Him to The Greek, everything else is free range. A riot. Can be watched multiple times and still be enjoyed. The soundtrack (that was done by the actual cast for a change) was great. Aldious Snow is larger than life and yetA truly hilarious movie. Russel Brand, Rose Byrne and P.Diddy make this film.

There's not much to analyze in Get Him to the Greek. All you need to know is that it is a very funny film, due to Russell Brand's tactic to make his ridiculous character seem like he could exist in real life. And, come to think of it, he probably did.

Funny, exaggerated and unfair, laughs roll naturally and this film manages to make something positive from the excesses, the jokes are great and the acting is not far behind, a great option for anyone laugh.

Some top-notch direction and an interesting, original story help to make Get Him to the Greek more watchable than the script would allow on its own. The gags are all centred around drugs, alcohol and sex, which are mostly handled crudely; allowing for little variety, even in the many farcical situations the two leads find themselves in.

A one trick pony of sex and drugs that gets old very quickly. Russell Brand is a horrible actor that needs to stay off the screen. Had some laughs here and there but Get Him to the Greek is a below average film.

Decent comedy but at the end of the day there isn't much here that I haven't seen before from the genre or the film's main stars so it tends to blend in with the rest of them.
